It's finally here, and it's all over the net. Not too long ago a reveal clip for the
highly anticipated game GEARS OF WAR 2 made its way online. Now, we're
presenting it to you here on Horror-Fanatics. The clip below is that very same
reveal clip which features an introduction by lead designer Cliff Bleszinski. The clip
shows Marcus Fenix battling it out against a swarm of Locusts. The guns and
chainsaws are back, only this time Marcus has a few new tricks up his sleeve.
GEARS 2 is the sequel to the critically acclaimed best-seller game, which was
announced during the 2008 Game Developers Conference on February 20, 2008.
The game is scheduled for release in November and will use a heavily upgraded
version of the Unreal Engine 3. For all you collectors out there, GEARS 2 will also
have a Limited Collectors Edition of the game which will include a poster, concept
art, 5 graphic novels explaining the time period between the first Gears of War
and this game, the making of DVD, and stainless steel dog tags.

GEARS OF WAR 2 takes place six months after the detonation of the Lightmass
Bomb at the end of the first game. Though most of the Locust Horde was
destroyed, the explosion also caused much of the liquid Imulsion underground to
vaporize, causing a fatal disease called "Rust Lung" to spread among the
diminshed human population. While the humans dealt with their casualties, the
surviving Locust found a way to build huge sinkholes under the remaining human
strongholds. The once impenetrable Jacinto Plateau, one of the last remaining
refuges for humans, is showing signs that the same fate awaits it. In order to
stop the fall of Jacinto, Marcus Fenix, Dominic Santiago, and a new Delta Squad
spearhead a counterattack against the Locust. GEARS OF WAR 2 is developed by
Epic Games for Microsoft Game Studios. You can pre-order the regular GEARS OF
WAR 2 game or the limited collector's edition over at
Amazon.
